Chapter 284
Luan bells rang softly with the wind, and Xie's gorgeous and spacious four-horse carriage drove away from Fu Mansion and headed for Wuyi Lane.
The silver charcoal burning inside the carriage was exuberant, it was as warm as spring, but Xie Zhan's heart was like falling into an ice cave.
In vain he thought that Fuxuan really accepted him from the inside out, in vain he thought that after several months, the two of them had hope, but it turned out that it was just a dream without trace.
Even Uncle Fu, who had a grudge against him, gradually changed his attitude, calling "Liulang" and "Liulang" affectionately.Who knows, in the end it was Fuxuan who didn't want the marriage.
Seeing the two packages, one black and one white, on the short table in front of him again, he felt a sense of sarcasm flowing through his body from beginning to end, he gritted his back molars, raised his lips and laughed at himself.
At first he just laughed lowly, and then he laughed loudly, and there was still a lot of grotesque meaning in the laughter.
The laughter was loud, but there was no smile in his eyes.
Therein lies the helplessness and pain.
**
Xie Zhan didn't show up in Qingxi Garden for several days, and Fu Xuan naturally understood the reason. It's not that she didn't think about going to him, but when she thought of meeting him again, the arrogant nobleman might question her coldly.
Thinking of this, she rested her mind and didn't want to beg for it anymore.
It's not that she has never seen his indifference and alienation——
"Fu girl, who do you think you are?"
"My calligraphy and paintings are never given to others...Although the paintings are made by me, as for who gave them to me, I don't know."
She has not forgotten these bad memories, even though he is attracted to her now, in fact, his temperament is still the same as before, and has not fundamentally changed.
Even his pursuit in those few months, whether it was showing his talents or sneaking in over the wall, all of them still showed his arrogance and strength.
To be honest, she was right to refuse the marriage, but she was really afraid of seeing Xie Zhan's cold face again, otherwise, how could she have left her father's study like running away that day, and left so quickly.
Having said that, she was really surprised. He had never discussed with her, and suddenly came to propose marriage. If he could ask her in advance, he would have avoided an embarrassment.
Fuxuan sighed.
After all, Yuan Chen is approaching, and when she goes to give him the gift of Yuan Chen, his anger should be dissipated. At that time, she should be able to listen to him more rationally than now.
——Fuxuan thought so, she put this matter on hold for the time being, and went to assist Princess Jiayang, and got busy with Fuyun's marriage.
Regardless of whether this Great Liang Tianxia is actually a powerful family or a strong royal family, at least on the bright side, it is still considered royal.Therefore, the gift of marriage is considered an honor in any case.
In the past, the saints bestowed marriages either on the meritorious officials or on the children of aristocratic families, and Fuyun’s bestowing marriages was actually the intention of the third princess to find Emperor Mu Andi. The Fu family is naturally grateful for Emperor Mu Andi's kindness, and attaches great importance to this marriage.
Although Fuyun is Princess Shang, the six ceremonies of the wedding must be completed meticulously and according to the routine.
In the first ceremony, there were more than thirty kinds of mascots to be purchased one by one. Fuxuan was very concerned about this matter. She was picky and active. Those who are in line with their wishes, some even do it by themselves and purchase it in person.It wasn't until the eve of the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month that Nacai's mascot was ready.
But also because of this twelfth lunar day, another major event happened.
According to the custom, every year on the twelfth lunar day, the folks will hold a "hunting sacrifice", that is, hunting animals and holding a big sacrifice activity, worshiping gods and ancestors, praying for blessings and longevity, avoiding disasters and welcoming auspiciousness.
In the past, Fu Xuan did not know how to hunt, and she did not participate in hunting when her brothers went out. This year is different, because of the three-legged cat kung fu who can shoot arrows, the enthusiasm that was interrupted by the sudden earthquake during the spring hunting last time was revived again. So she got equipped and went into the mountains with her brothers, hoping to experience hunting again.
This year, those who travel with Fu's family, apart from Chen Tian who stays with Fu Xiao every year, also keep up with Zhou Xi, a good friend of Fu Xuan.
Then, everyone saw that in the rain and snow, a group of gentlemen and a girl rode their horses past Jiankang City, flying lightly in light clothes, with a great ambition to gallop.
However, when this ambition returned, not everyone returned with a full load, but someone returned with injuries.
This matter can be regarded as a bit unlucky.
Although the young master Zhou Xi was unique in investigating cases, able to control horses, and knew kung fu, but because he grew up in a big family Zhou's family since he was a child, he was raised in a "refined" place, and he had some hunting experience. Lack of vigilance, coupled with the fact that the vigilance is not as high as that of other people who have fought in the battlefield. After entering the mountain, the cold fog in the mountain is thick and the line of sight is blocked, so they gradually fail to keep up with the front and are left alone.
In the forest sea and snowfield, in the vast and undulating mountains, is the stage for fierce beasts to compete. Unfortunately, Zhou Xi and his horse were stared at by a hungry tiger looking for food from behind.
If the other boys were present, they would definitely be able to tell from the footprints on the snow that there were tigers nearby, so they would be more vigilant. Bite the horse's rump.
Fortunately, Chen Tian and Fu Xuan came back after realizing that he had been separated, and saw this critically dangerous scene.
The two immediately drew their bows and shot arrows, restraining the tiger. However, Chen Tian's horse stepped on the ground and rolled down the slope suddenly. Before Chen Tian returned his attention from hunting the tiger, he went Being led by the horse, he fell down, was pinned down by the horse, broke his leg, and fell into a coma for a while.
After Chen Tian was carried back to Prince Duan's mansion, Princess Lao Duan fainted out of anger when she saw that her son was unconscious.
There was no mistress in Duanwang's mansion, and there was only a young girl in her early ten years old as a female family member. The old princess fell into a coma, and no one took care of her besides the servants.Therefore, Fuxuan stayed in Prince Duan's mansion and took on the responsibility of taking care of Princess Lao Duan closely.
But this matter was spread out of Prince Duan's Mansion, and what was also rumored was quite different from the truth.
It was rumored that His Royal Highness Duan Wang was seriously injured in order to save a girl who went hunting with him, and the rescued girl stayed in Duan Wang's mansion and took care of His Highness Duan Wang himself.The neighbors on the street of Duanwang's Mansion have seen this girl before, and she was the girl who helped the family when His Highness Duanwang's Highness went out to greet him when he came to Duanwang's Mansion.
Afterwards, people were all sighing, it seems that, for the life-saving grace of King Duan, the Fu girl's side might have to agree with her body.
Hearing these rumors, Xie Zhan was instantly struck by lightning.
He tightened his palm suddenly, crushed the jade bone fan in his hand, got up and paced back and forth in the room, after walking several times, he suddenly looked back at Shi Qing, "Where is she now?"
Shi Qing raised his eyes and took a quick glance, then said in a low voice, "In... Duanwang's Mansion."
